Stockholm, March 5 | Washington, D.C., May 4 | New York City, May 5
The 2020 edition of SACCNY’s annual Executive Women’s Conference (eWc) drills down on the importance of women supporting each other – the power of women backing women – important lessons learned for all, including the next generation.
This year, eWc is presented in partnership with Dagens Industri Jämställt Näringsliv and “Näringslivets Mäktigaste Kvinna”, and is ramping up SACCNY’s highly appreciated initiative for investing in women in leadership positions. First in Stockholm and following on the heels of “Näringslivets Mäktigaste Kvinna”, eWc builds on an eighteen-year momentum of an exciting, one-of-a-kind, transatlantic Executive Women’s Conference, showcasing the exciting women making a difference in the professional and business world today.
